Disc cover
Quote | Reply
So...is there anything new in the disc cover realm? I have an older wheelbuilder cover but haven't found too many other options and wondering if I'm just missing some things out there. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I know that about five years back, there was an American company that began making carbon covers. I think Thomas G. was a pitch man for those. Heard they went out of business. I know I'd upgrade to a lighter cover for a price under 300, since a disc wheel seems to be too $ for the speed you get compared to a cover.

Also curious, especially something that would work with disc brakes.

I bought the EZ Disc a while ago off of a guy from the UK who's in the TT/Tri scene there. I believe his name was Clinton Butcher. I saw he's now also selling one for disc brake bikes.

I saw them doing some adverts on facebook (I am UK based too..)

Are you happy with yours?

I had to cut them to a smaller diameter because of the height/width of my rear wheel but other than that it's been fine, although I haven't been able to use it much so far. The quality however is good imo.

I have a set of wheel builder covers that came with a set of Mavic rims I picked up used. I have yet to use the covers but plan on using them this coming season if it happens.

Im not a serious competitor, mostly competing against my self to stay in shape and have fun. I figure that the covers suit my needs well. From what I have read there is not much else available.

Thanks for the lead on the Spanish covers. Anything I can do to cheaply reduce weight on m,y Cd 0.1 is welcome.

I bought a carbon wheel cover from these guys a few years back: http://www.raltech.co.uk/Prod_3-Wh-Cov.html

They're in the UK. It was a great cover and I had no complaints.

‘Vitesse Disc Wheel Cover’ on eBay. £53.00. Think it’s UK though. Bought one earlier this year when my disc wheel broke. Set a 50 mile PB and a couple of Strava segment bests using it. I did eventually get a second hand disc late summer and only bettered one of the 20k Strava segments by 10 seconds with the actual disc. Not scientific I know but IMO not a lot of difference.
